BANKARA Ramen An authentic Tokyo-style ramen restaurant located on Sukhumvit 39 in The Manor complex, easily accessible from the BTS Phrom Phong station. The restaurant pays meticulous attention to every detail to capture the authentic flavors of Japanese ramen, from simmering the pork bone broth using a secret recipe until it achieves a rich, aromatic, and creamy texture with a naturally balanced sweet and salty flavor The restaurant sources ingredients directly from Japan and carefully selects different types of ramen noodles to complement the unique characteristics of each broth. There are four main ramen styles to choose from: Bankara Ramen, a pork bone broth blended with soy sauce for a well-rounded flavor; Tonkotsu Ramen, a thick, white pork bone broth rich in collagen and vitamin E; Miso Ramen, a pork bone broth blended with aromatic Japanese miso paste; and Tsukemen, a pork bone broth combined with chicken and dried fish broth, offering a sweet, salty, and slightly tangy flavor.
Another signature highlight of Bankara is Kakuni—large slices of pork belly that have been meticulously simmered for a full two days, allowing the rich flavors to fully penetrate the meat until it becomes tender, succulent, and practically melts in your mouth. You can order it alongside ramen or enjoy it as a side dish, such as the Kakuni Saramori. Additionally, the Ebi Age Harumaki—fried spring rolls filled with shrimp—pairs perfectly with the main dish. You can also customize the flavor of your ramen to your liking, whether by requesting a less oily or less salty broth.
To round out your meal perfectly, the restaurant also offers a variety of rice bowl dishes to choose from, including Buta Kakuni Don (braised pork belly rice bowl) Aburi Chashu Don (grilled chashu pork over rice), and Negi Buta Meshi (diced chashu pork in sauce over rice). Round out your meal with a popular dessert like Annin Dofu —a silky, fragrant Japanese tofu pudding—or Green Tea Ice Cream, which makes for the perfect palate cleanser. Every element is carefully conceived and prepared so that every bowl of ramen conveys the authentic flavors and character of Bankara Ramen✨
